its tough, (just lost my 5th in 2y, 4th in a year and 7th overall) but whatever happens im here for you. you can CAT me anytime or have my email if youd prefer.

I'm so sorry about your babies Lissie.

thank you x its tough and wearing but i just have to believe that it will get better. coz bad luck DOES end

Its odd to start having miscarriages after you have one normal healthy pregnancy isn't it?

yes, i had probs throughout my pg but thought that id be fine with the next one. but 5mc's and 1ep later im starting to lose faith. still, maybe next time...

ep?

ectopic pregnancy. was in feb and i lost a tube

Oh I'm so sorry. Will that effect things for you in the future?

it about halves your chances of conception. dh apparently has super-sperm tho

LOL I tell my husband that. I have been avoiding getting pregnant but he always seems to manage getting me that way. I made sure the last time. 5 days before I was due to ovulate. Here I am again.

paula...sorry to hear of your m/cs, and i hope you get a positive result and a happy outcome. I've had two and it is very difficult, especially when there are no answers.

i read somewhere that an additional high dose of folic acid could help with some conditions but i can't remember the specific dose or conditions.

I have coeliac disease and upped the amount i was taking for my last pregnancy to 600mg a day. I don't know if it made a difference or not, but this pregnancy was successful and i now have a lovely DD.

there is a great pregnancy after MC support thread on here. it got me through some very bleak moments during my pregnancy and it's great sharing your fears and worries with women who've been through it.

Good Luck xx

jules....congratulations, that's fantastic news....all the best for the future xx

im taking 5mg as prescribed by the doc, plus multi-vits

thanks lissie...I thought that was the dose but wasn't sure. I didn't take quite that much, but i did up the amount as i read somewhere that it might help with conditions where iron absorption was a problem (ie the coeliac disease)

Thanks Daisy. I have been taking Pregnacare which has folic acid in it

That sounds lovely. I'm glad you are relaxing its the best thing really. My day has been rather hectic. I haven't made it to the twinges stage yet but I know what you mean. You feel like you are going to start bleeding at any moment. Its not a good feeling at all.

Went ahead a took a test. It was positive as I knew it would be.

Congratulations

Fingers crossed for you

paula...sending positive vibes, that this bean is mean to be. x

Thanks
